Ronimo Games is best known by Nintendo fans for its release of Swords & Soldiers on the WiiWare service back in 2009. Less acclaimed was the release of the 3D version of the game on the 3DS eShop last year. However way you've heard about the Netherlands-based studio and its side-scrolling strategy game, the developer is pleased to announce its latest title Swords & Soldiers II is coming to the Wii U as a downloadable game.

According to the few details released so far, the sequel to the 2009 original will involve Redbeard and his gang of burly Vikings in an all-new adventure. Throughout his journey, Redbeard will make new friends and enemies, with barbecue parties no longer being the sole focus — it’s now more about saving the world!

Further information regarding Swords and Soldiers II for Wii U will be revealed at GDC in a few weeks time. It’ll also be playable at PAX East. In the meantime, check out the announcement teaser below:
